Frequently Asked Questions

Why become a DevOps Engineer?

Everyone has their own reason(s) as to why they want to become a DevOps Engineer. But here are a few of the best reasons:

  1. Lots of jobs available. As we're writing this, there are over 33,000 DevOps Engineer jobs available on Glassdoor (not to mention Linkedin, Indeed, or elsewhere). And it isn't going to slow down.
  2. High demand = High salary. The average annual salary for a DevOps Engineer in the United States is over $114,000 across all levels (entry-level to senior). This amount can also be much higher at major tech companies like Google, Amazon, Facebook, and others.
